Wokepoets is a collective of several Atlanta-based musicians led by Dale Lawrence. They create a wide eclectic range of socially conscious, lyric driven modern music. This particular song was written with Dale Lawrence's mother and brother in mind both of who passed under tragic circumstances. First, his brother at just 18 years old was killed in a hit and run and just a few short years ago, he lost his mother to ALS and watched helplessly as she withered away. A beautiful melody led to a heartfelt and poignant lyric.
